style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vast majority of consumers rely on reviews to make informed purchase decisions \u2013 whether they\u2019re shopping online, in-store, or some combination of the two. Consumers value this content because it\u2019s honest, authentic and unbiased \u2013 for better or worse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there are threats to this authenticity: fake reviews and manufactured review presences (i.e. creating an artificially positive representation of the product by blocking negative reviews).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, there have been plenty of news stories about rising concerns over fake reviews \u2013 and businesses that suppress negative content. In fact, governments are even stepping in to squelch this growing problem. The European Union (EU) Omnibus Directive 2019\/2161, which came into effect in 2020, expands regulations to protect consumers \u2013 including stricter demands on fake and misleading reviews. And earlier this year, in the US, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/01\/25\/business\/fashion-nova-reviews.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the Federal Trade Commision<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (FTC) fined clothing retailer Fashion Nova $4.2m for suppressing negative reviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s undoubtedly a global problem. But the fake and inauthentic reviews issue has perhaps garnered more attention in the UK than anywhere else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fake reviews \u2013 and suppressing negative content \u2013 misleads consumers. This leads to poor purchase decisions. It\u2019s a short-term play that will catch up with the brand concerned before long. But that doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t be effective to driving sales before it does.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s more, the presence of fake reviews can tarnish a business\u2019 hard earned reputation. And failing to publish negative content can cause consumers to lose trust in a brand or retailer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, more than ever, brands and retailers must make it a priority to preserve the authenticity of reviews. But why? And how?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, we surveyed more than 3,200 consumers in the UK to understand the importance to shoppers of review authenticity \u2013 and what can be done to preserve it. In this report, we share our key findings \u2013 as well as recommendations for brands and retailers looking to preserve consumer trust.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\"

One key way to preserve that authenticity is to let shoppers know the source of reviews. 82% say that reviews tagged with information about who wrote it are more authentic and real.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to appropriately badge all reviews. For example, if a review was written by a verified buyer, indicate it in the review. And if a shopper received a free sample, disclose it. Providing information about the source of reviews will bolster shoppers\u2019 trust \u2013 and help them make more informed purchase decisions. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dea350b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"dea350b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-768x380.png 768w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-1024x506.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-1536x759.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-610x301.png 610w,https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling.webp 1540w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-768x380.png\" height=\"317\" width=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-768x380.png 768w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-1024x506.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-1536x759.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling-610x301.png 610w, https:\/\/www.powerreviews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/sdm-estee-sampling.png 1540w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-26322 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f271381 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f271381\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5932e28\" data-id=\"5932e28\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0847174 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0847174\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Five<\/span>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f718794 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f718794\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Perfect Reviews Raise Red Flags<\/span>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9cd044c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9cd044c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over half of shoppers (55%) are suspicious when a given review is too positive or too negative.
